Our 13th Anniversary

 Tuesday, May 29th, 2012

Our day started out looking cloudy but the temperature was hot.  We knew we would have bands of Beryl coming through so we decided to embrace it.  We ordered room service for breakfast.  It was superb.  The big party that had been going on all weekend was gone so Jeremy called downstairs to the front desk to see if we could switch rooms to an oceanview room for our actually anniversary day and our last night in Tampa.  We had tried to get it when we checked in but that wasn't possible as they were already overbooked.  They upgraded us for free and had us in there lickety split!  Awesome.

 This is the area that was hopping all weekend long.....bar, restaurant, pier, beach, tiki huts, jet ski rentals, beach volleyball, etc.  But, today we had it all to ourselves!!  We got in our swim suits and headed to the pool!

 We hung out by the pool for about three hours....the water was great!  We had a few people come and go through but mostly, just us!

 Then Beryl started to roll in....it was pretty cool because you could see the circular bands formed over the bay and watch the whole thing come in!! I loved every minute of it!

 Yes, he is nuts!  That's why I love him!

 And oh, so handsome!!

Below: We saw this coming in from the pool area and scooped all our stuff up and high tailed it to the fifth floor (our room) to watch it all go down! 

 It only lasted about 30 minutes or so.  But the tide totally went out!  It was about four or five feet deep and all the way to the top of the cement barricade there.  So it went down about 4 or 5 feet and out about 10 or so feet.  Pretty neat to watch!

 We ordered room service a lot on this day! haha!  This was a snack of coconut shrimp and spinach artichoke dip with blue crab.  Yummy!

 This was so funny!  We went on the balcony about 7:30 thinking that we would watch the sunset.  It took FOREVER!!! lol!  We were bored stiff by the end of it all.  We had a good laugh though!!

 And more sunset............

I am so blessed to be with Jeremy for 13 wonderful years.  It just keeps getting better and better.  The more time we spend together, the more time we want to spend together...if that makes sense! haha!  We don't care if people think we are dumb or do dumb things.  We do what we want to do and that makes us happy.  We don't keep things from each other and know every detail of each other's lives.  There is nothing I would rather do than hang out with Jeremy.  We are soul mates.  Ahhhh, wuv, twu wuv!!  Our love is like a storybook story and it's as real as the feelings we feel.
